This is not the first time we're incrementing this timeout. Eventually we should get rid of that and find a way to make this work reliably without a timeout. There can always be situations where faults take longer, and we should not fail randomly in those cases.

There are also some FIXMEs in this code that should be addressed at the same time.

That said, as a short-term fix, this patch is
[JZ] Yes, it is just a short-term fix. the root cause is still under study,
